InFocus has announced that its M370 and M812 smartphones will start receiving Android 6.0 Marshmallow update by December.

The company as of now has not revealed plans whether it will release the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update via OTA (over-the-air) or will be through system. Both the InFocus M370 and M812 were launched in July this year; though went on sale in recent months. The InFocus M370 and M812 ran Android 5.0 Lollipop with the company's skin called InLife UI, which is highly customisable, running on top. We can expect the company to introduce a newer version of its InLife UI based Android 6.0 Marshmallow. To recall, the InFocus M370 and M812 were launched at Rs. 5,999 and Rs. 19,999 respectively.
